Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B 2016

96–97
/100

Larcis Ducasse ligger på Cote Pavie i nærheden af Bellefont Belcier og Pavie. Med andre ord på de sydlige skråninger af kalkstensplateauet. Direktøren er Nicolas Thienpont, som også er ansvarlig for Beausejour Duffau og Pavie Macquin. Den ønologiske konsulent er Stephane Derenoncourt. Så succeshistorien om Saint Emilion fortsætter. Larcis Ducasse er ofte lidt mere charmerende end de to giganter Beausejour Duffau og Pavie Macquin. I 2016 er næsen også noget varmere og mere moden, måske på grund af den varmere sydlige eksponering. Smuk blomme med søde kirsebær, sorte kirsebær, lidt enebær og lakrids. Udpræget mynteagtig, eukalyptus. Fin kirsebærsmag. Røde og sorte kirsebær, men også slåen, lidt provencalske urter, underskov. Meget god længde. Meget frisk i sin overdådighed, syreholdig, men intet gør ondt, intet stikker. Den har god harmoni i den fine sødme. Og stor kraft! Også en meget raffineret Larcis Ducasse. For mig på niveau med Pavie Macquin, men lige efter Beausejour Duffau.

Suckling om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The aromas here are so spellbinding with shitake mushrooms, wet earth and moss, as well as tree bark and, finally, dark fruit. The palate is incredible as it builds and grows with full body, but always tight and reserved. It shows so much depth and complexity. Please try not to touch this until 2025. 99/100

Galloni om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2016 Larcis Ducasse is absolutely gorgeous. Fresh, vibrant and alluring, with tremendous vibrancy, the 2016 has so much to offer. Expressive savory and blood orange notes add brightness to the red cherry and plum fruit, with beams of firm yet well-integrated tannins that give the wine its shape and energy. In 2016, Larcis brings together undeniable raciness and power in a complete package that is irresistibly beautiful. Give it a few years in bottle for the tannins to soften. 97/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

From one of my favorite estates in Bordeaux, the deeply colored 2016 Château Larcis Ducasse is comprised of 87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc that was brought up in 50% new French oak. It offers a huge bouquet of black, black fruits, smoked herbs, forest floor, graphite, and underbrush that builds beautifully with time in the glass. Deep, rich, opulent and expansive on the palate, with building tannins, it’s a rich, layered Saint-Emilion as well as another incredible wine from this estate. Give it a few years if you can. It’s capable of keeping for three decades or more. 97/100

Parker om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Larcis Ducasse sashays gracefully out of the glass with beautiful Black Forest cake, red cherry compote, raspberry preserves and blackberry pie scents plus hints of cigar box, Ceylon tea, dried lavender and forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers gorgeous red and black fruit preserves flavors with a wonderfully plush texture and very long, perfumed finish. 96/100
